Increased Enrollment and Campus Construction
Please be prepared this spring for an increase in traffic due to multiple construction projects. Be sure to come to campus early and allow for extra commuting time and use the recommended parking alternatives.
Robertson Stadium
- For the spring
semester, lots 12B and
15D are no longer
accessible as well as a
significant portions of
lot 12A due to
construction of the new
football stadium and the
Metro light rail line.
Alternate parking
options include lots 8A
and 9C (economy) as well
as our Leek Street
gravel lots 16E, 16J,
16I and 16H located on
Cullen just north of
Elgin. We also encourage
you to take advantage of
the parking available at
the Energy Research Park
at 5000 Gulf Freeway.
Once parked at ERP, ride
the shuttle bus to
campus. The campus stop
is located on UH
Entrance 1 (University
Drive) in front of the
University Center.
Wheeler Street and
Scott Street -
Construction along
Wheeler and Scott
continues this year,
making the decision to
avoid these areas one
that will save you time
and frustration. Along
with Metro light rail
construction, the Cougar
Village II construction
project will create
intermittent delays and
road closures at
Entrance 6. However,
with the opening of the
Campus Loop Road,
driving from Cullen to
University Drive and
vice versa should a
little more accessible.
The Campus Loop Road is
accessible at Entrance
13 off Cullen Boulevard,
from Wheeler at Entrance
6 and from University
Drive at Entrance 4.
It is the goal and
responsibility of
Parking and
Transportation Services
to keep the campus
community alerted to
events and conditions
that affect campus
parking and traffic. If
you cannot find
information on the
event/conditions you are
looking for, please
contact us at
parking@uh.edu.
